Psalms 105

1 Give ye thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; make known his acts among the peoples.

١ قَدِّمُوا الشُّكْرَ لِلرَّبِّ. ادْعُوا بِاسْمِهِ. عَرِّفُوا بِأَعْمَالِهِ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ.

2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him; meditate upon all his wondrous works.

٢ غَنُّوا لَهُ، اشْدُوا لَهُ. حَدِّثُوا بِكُلِّ عَجَائِبِهِ.

3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.

٣ تَبَاهَوْا بِاسْمِهِ الْقُدُّوسِ، لِتَفْرَحْ قُلُوبُ طَالِبِي الرَّبِّ.

4 Seek Jehovah and his strength, seek his face continually;

٤ اطْلُبُوا الرَّبَّ وَقُوَّتَهُ، الْتَمِسُوا وَجْهَهُ دَائِماً.

5 Remember his wondrous works which he hath done, his miracles and the judgments of his mouth:

٥ اذْكُرُوا عَجَائِبَهُ الَّتِي صَنَعَهَا، مُعْجِزَاتِهِ وَأَحْكَامَهُ الَّتِي نَطَقَ بِها.

6 Ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

٦ يَا ذُرِّيَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَبْدِهِ، يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ الَّذِينَ اخْتَارَهُمْ.

7 He, Jehovah, is our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

٧ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، أَحْكَامُهُ تَمْلأُ الأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا.

8 He is ever mindful of his covenant, — the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, —

٨ لَمْ يَنْسَ عَهْدَهُ قَطُّ وَلَا وَعْدَهُ الَّذِي قَطَعَهُ إِلَى أَلْفِ جِيلٍ،

9 Which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;

٩ الْعَهْدَ الَّذِي أَبْرَمَهُ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَالْقَسَمَ الَّذِي أَقْسَمَ بِهِ لإِسْحَاقَ.

10 And he confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, unto Israel for an everlasting covenant,

١٠ ثُمَّ ثَبَّتَهُ لِيَعْقُوبَ فَرِيضَةً، وَلإِسْرَائِيلَ مِيثَاقاً أَبَدِيًّا،

11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

١١ قَائِلاً: «لَكَ أُعْطِي أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ نَصِيبَ مِيرَاثٍ لَكُمْ».

12 When they were a few men in number, of small account, and strangers in it.

١٢ إِذْ كَانُوا قِلَّةً بَعْدُ، نَفَراً ضَئِيلاً مُتَغَرِّبِينَ فِي الأَرْضِ.

13 And they went from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

١٣ مُتَنَقِّلِينَ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ، وَمِنْ مَمْلَكَةٍ إِلَى أُخْرَى.

14 He suffered no man to oppress them, and reproved kings for their sakes,

١٤ فَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَيَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَظْلِمُهُمْ، بَلْ وَبَّخَ مُلُوكاً مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ.

15 [Saying, ] Touch not mine anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm.

١٥ قَائِلاً: «لَا تَمَسُّوا مُسَحَائِي، وَلَا تُؤْذُوا أَنْبِيَائِي».

16 And he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole staff of bread.

١٦ ثُمَّ أَفْشَى مَجَاعَةً فِي الأَرْضِ، وَقَطَعَ الْخُبْزَ قِوَامَ طَعَامِهِمْ.

17 He sent a man before them: Joseph was sold for a bondman.

١٧ لَكِنَّهُ أَرْسَلَ أَمَامَهُمْ يُوسُفَ، فَبِيعَ عَبْداً.

18 They afflicted his feet with fetters; his soul came into irons;

١٨ آذَوْا بِالْقُيُودِ قَدَمَيْهِ، وَبِالْحَدِيدِ طَوَّقُوا عُنُقَهُ.

19 Until the time when what he said came about: the word of Jehovah tried him.

١٩ إِلَى أَنْ تَحَقَّقَ تَفْسِيرُهُ لِلأَحْلامِ فِي أَوَانِهِ، وَبَرْهَنَتْ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ صِدْقَهُ.

20 The king sent and loosed him — the ruler of peoples — and let him go free.

٢٠ فَأَرْسَلَ الْمَلِكُ وَأَطْلَقَهُ، حَاكِمُ الشَّعْبِ حَرَّرَهُ.

21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler over all his possessions:

٢١ أَقَامَهُ سَيِّداً عَلَى قَصْرِهِ، وَمُتَسَلِّطاً عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَمْلاكِهِ.

22 To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.

٢٢ يَتَصَرَّفُ بِوُلاتِهِ حَسَبَ مَسَرَّتِهِ، وَيُلَقِّنُ شُيُوخَهُ الْحِكْمَةَ.

23 And Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

٢٣ ثُمَّ جَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلُ إِلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. تَغَرَّبَ يَعْقُوبُ فِي بَلَدِ حَامٍ.

24 And he made his people exceeding fruitful, and made them mightier than their oppressors.

٢٤ فَكَثَّرَ اللهُ شَعْبَهُ، وَجَعَلَهُ أَقْوَى مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ،

25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

٢٥ الَّذِينَ حَوَّلَ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِيُبْغِضُوا شَعْبَهُ، وَيَكِيدُوا لِعَبِيدِهِ.

26 He sent Moses his servant, [and] Aaron whom he had chosen:

٢٦ عِنْدَئِذٍ أَرْسَلَ مُوسَى عَبْدَهُ وَهَارُونَ مُخْتَارَهُ.

27 They set his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham.

٢٧ فَأَجْرَيَا بَيْنَهُمْ آيَاتِهِ، وَصَنَعَا عَجَائِبَ فِي مِصْرَ.

28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

٢٨ بَعَثَ ظَلاماً، تَغَشَّتْ بِهِ الأَرْضُ، وَلَكِنَّ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ عَانَدُوا كَلِمَتَهُ.

29 He turned their waters into blood, and caused their fish to die.

٢٩ حَوَّلَ مِيَاهَهُمْ إِلَى دَمٍ وَأَمَاتَ أَسْمَاكَهُمْ.

30 Their land swarmed with frogs, — in the chambers of their kings.

٣٠ فَاضَتْ أَرْضُهُمْ ضَفَادِعَ حَتَّى بَلَغَتْ مَخَادِعَ مُلُوكِهِمْ.

31 He spoke, and there came dog-flies, [and] gnats in all their borders.

٣١ أَمَرَ فَأَقْبَلَ الذُّبَابُ وَالْبَعُوضُ فَانْتَشَرَ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِهِمْ

32 He gave them hail for rain, [and] flaming fire in their land;

٣٢ أَمْطَرَ عَلَيْهِمْ بَرَداً وَأَلْهَبَ أَرْضَهُمْ بِالْبُرُوقِ.

33 And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees of their borders.

٣٣ ضَرَبَ كُرُومَهُمْ وَتِينَهُمْ، وَهَشَّمَ كُلَّ أَشْجَارِهِمْ

34 He spoke, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, even without number;

٣٤ أَمَرَ، فَتَوَافَدَ الْجَرَادُ الطَّيَّارُ وَالزَّحَّافُ بِأَعْدَادٍ لَا تُحْصَى،

35 And they devoured every herb in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.

٣٥ فَالْتَهَمَ كُلَّ عُشْبِ أَرْضِهِمْ، وَأَكَلَ ثِمَارَ حُقُولِهِمْ.

36 And he smote every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigour.

٣٦ ثُمَّ قَتَلَ الرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ أَبْكَارِ أَرْضِهِمْ، أَوَائِلَ ثِمَارِ خُصُوبَتِهِمْ جَمِيعاً.

37 And he brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was not one feeble among their tribes.

٣٧ وَأَخْرَجَ شَعْبَهُ مُحَمَّلِينَ بِفِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، وَلَمْ يَتَعَثَّرْ فِي الْمَسِيرِ مِنْ عَشَائِرِهِمْ وَاحِدٌ.

38 Egypt rejoiced at their departure; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.

٣٨ فَرِحَ أَهْلُ مِصْرَ بِخُرُوجِهِمْ لأَنَّ رُعْبَهُمْ غَلَبَ عَلَيْهِمْ.

39 He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light in the night.

٣٩ نَشَرَ سَحَابَةً فَوْقَ شَعْبِهِ، غِطَاءً لَهُمْ، وَأَرْسَلَ نَاراً تُضِيءُ لَهُمْ لَيْلاً.

40 They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

٤٠ طَلَبُوا طَعَاماً فَبَعَثَ لَهُمْ طُيُورَ السَّلْوَى وَمِنْ خُبْزِ السَّمَاءِ أَشْبَعَهُمْ.

41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed forth; they ran in the dry places [like] a river.

٤١ فَلَقَ الصَّخْرَةَ وَفَجَّرَ مِنْهَا الْمِيَاهَ، فَجَرَتْ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ كَأَنَّهَا نَهْرٌ.

42 For he remembered his holy word, [and] Abraham his servant;

٤٢ لأَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَتَهُ الْمُقَدَّسَةَ الَّتِي وَعَدَ بِها إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَبْدَهُ.

43 And he brought forth his people with gladness, his chosen with rejoicing;

٤٣ وَهَكَذَا أَخْرَجَ شَعْبَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ بِابْتِهَاجٍ وَمُخْتَارِيهِ بِتَرَانِيمِ الظَّفَرِ.

44 And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the labour of the peoples:

٤٤ وَوَهَبَهُمْ أَرَاضِيَ الأُمَمِ، فَامْتَلَكُوا غَلَّاتٍ تَعِبَتْ فِيهَا شُعُوبٌ أُخْرَى.

45 That they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Hallelujah!

٤٥ لِيُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضَهُ وَيُطِيعُوا شَرَائِعَهُ. هَلِّلُويَا.
